    hey Kay, thats the link... but I just realized they satin and not chiffon... so I don't know if thats something you'd want... but I loved my dress and I wore it for a summer wedding and it has the lace up back!

     

    Wow, I love that dress! I will HAVE to check it out.  Thank you SO much!

  2. Hi ladies,

     

    I found these bridesmaid dresses over a year ago and LOVE them, My MOH and I went to the store to try them on last fall.. and the fit is amazing.  I have looked into other options for bridesmaid dress because these ones are $200.  I didn't want my girls to have to pay that much, but they all insist we go with those dresses as they love them and no other dress comes close.  They are lace up back, therefore they do not need alterations.

    If you go to their website you can search for stores near you that carry Venus and than I called the one's closes to me to see if they had this dress in as a sample to try on :)

    Here are the save the date magnets. I just went with simple save the dates. Kay I've decided to do invites as well. I'll post again when I have them made. My mind changes daily! lol

     

     

     

    I picked up a little something to give our guests when they get off the plane. I'm trying to arrange us all on one bus from the airport to the hotel and I'm hoping to give these out on the bus. The ones we got are a little different but the same concept.

    I am hoping to get the trial run for my bouquet done in the near future. I'll post that when I'm done (as long as it's not a hot mess lol)

     

    They are very nice! and that's a cute idea for the necklace cup!

    I am doing Orange and pink, and I am having the girls in orange I wondered the same thing but I think that you could do the purple and then have the royal blue as an accent colour so some other smaller things could be the royal blue, or another idea... you could do both and tie them onto the same chair!

    Oh that would be nice both mixed maybe!! Yes the blue is more of an accent.  Purple seems to be the main deal... :)

    Are you bringing your own bows or ties for the chairs or did you check with the resort and see if they had those colours?

     

    We got our save the date magnets in. They are a bit smaller then I thought or hoped but they are very well done and will do the trick! 

    Hey alley08,

     

    We are using the resort bows;  there is 3 shades of purple to choose from and a couple blue shades to choose from as well.

     

    Post a picture of the magnets :) 

  6. Thanks ladies,

    I have everything ready to print for my passport invites.  I just need cardstock for the cover pages... still looking. Paper Garden has amazing prices, thanks for sharing.  Im just nervous about not seeing the exact colour first. mmmhmm decisions.  I need to go on the hunt for everything else this week, printing and assembly starts Saturday.  As for pocket folds, I am totally lost at what to do :/ :(

I just found a website... paper-garden.ca which is based in Canada and sells all types of metallic and regular paper/cardstock which are great for making invites! I just bought some Astrobright Glisten paper (it was on clearance for .20 cents a sheet)! I bought 65 sheets for like 13$ I was going to just buy a couple sheets to see if its that colour I want but shipping was 12$ so I ended up being enough for my invites 65 sheets and shipping was still 12$ so I am really hoping its the colour I am looking for. Its called Red Rocket but it looks coralish and it was listed under the pink/fushia heading so I am guessing its more pink coral then red.

     

    Heres a link to it...http://paper-garden.ca/products.php?cat=302 ; its the bottom one Red rocket.

     

    Like I said I am planning on making DIY airline ticket invites. I have already designed the invite... just waiting to confirm our information. I will be using a pearlescent white paper for the actual ticket invite. And then use the paper I just bought for the sleeve the ticket will sit in. I also bought little starfish pendants off ebay ( 1$ for 35 and free shipping -just received them today adn they are awesome -I just bid on another set of 35 for 1$!!) and I will tie these around the sleeve with ribbon... probably a lighter coloured ribbon in the coral coloured family. I am trying to decide what colour envelope to go with? They don't have matchin envelopes with the colour I am using for the sleeve, so I guess I'll wait til I receive it and then go from there... I might just go with a pearlescent white one to match the ticket invite. What do you guys think would look best?

    csho, 

    How are you making you pocket folds/sleeves? thanks!!

    I may take you up on that I have seen Starfish at Michaels but you are right they are way over priced and I need 50 LOL! I may change my mind about them and just not have them at all, let me know when you are going and I can Paypal you the money! That would be awesome that is the one thing that I wished I lived a little closer to the boarder, shopping! I know that we are getting a couple Targets but I dont think that they are opening here for another couple months!

    No problem I will let you know when Im going :)

  9. Hi ladies!

    Hope your weekends were good.  I did a last minute shopping trip across the boarder today to Buffalo, NY and found some GREAT stuff.

     

    "fake" pencil starfish for the boutonnieres and centre pieces for the AHR and possibly the for the handles on my girls bouquets.

     

    These were at the Christmas Tree Shop for $2.29/bag of 6.  These are the small ones they also had a bag of 6 large one's for $5.99

    (For some reason they look bigger in the picture but are about half this size!

     

    I also got this paper from Target for $8.99/100 sheets.  It is PERFECT for the inside passport invite pages, now just still searching for the card stock paper for the 'cover' page.

     

     

    Just wanted to let you know that a trip to the states could be a good choice, Christmas Tree Shop has TONS of stuff.. just didn't have a lot of time in there.

  10. Hi Ladies!!! 

     

    The wedding bouquets at the resort aren't ugly at all... either option will be beautiful :)  

     

    I would suggest dinner in the Cuban restaurant, its open so sort of the same idea as the paplas.  I like the idea of the paplas, I just dont want it to seem like im so far away from my family and friends. 

     

    I got an email from Giselle today, I sent her an email last week sometimes.

     

    Still waiting on my flowers from Afloral...

  11. Hey Csho!

     

    I am still waiting for my flowers from Afloral... I sent them to my friend in the states and she is sending them to me as it was cheaper that way.  Really? No I didn't get the idea from pinterest, I want to see it though!!!!! add a picture please?  I can't wait to get my the rest of the flowers to make the rest of the bouquets, bout.'s and corsages!! I just dont know what to do with them for 10 months, I dont want to leave them out to get dusty/dirty.  Maybe I will wait till the fall to do them, although I would just like to get them done, incase other stuff comes up. we shall see!  We are leaving earlier than our group, not staying for a honeymoon.  Im pretty sure we are going to do a 2 week trip all over Europe for our honeymoon in late spring or early summer :)
